Having been out of the country for a while I'm only just starting to catch up, so apologies in advance if I've missed something in the process. However... what is the point in running trams beyond Victoria only as far as a station that is just around the corner? Is there an operational reason for it? Given that the journey is made on foot from Victoria to Exchange Square in two minutes flat, I don't really see that it's going to make any particular difference to passengers heading into the city centre.
There is no great advantage but it is a completed section of 2CC so why not use it?
Exchange Sq. station is right outside the entrance to the Arndale Centre and operationally it is easier to turn the trams back at Exchange Sq. than Victoria.
